Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar has labelled as “unfair” the Supreme Court’s dismissal of a petition challenging the CBI’s FIR against him in a disproportionate assets case.
“This is a setback. What to do? This is unfair,” the senior Congress leader told .
“I will look at all the legal aspects and see how I can file an appeal. Everyone knows how political and vindictive… my issues have been going on. When the BJP government was there the CBI permission to register a FIR.
I asked for it to be squashed but they said they cannot…” At the same time the Karnataka government (after the Congress came to power) withdrew permission given to CBI and handed over case to the Lokayukta… so now CBI is continuing to investigate.
All this despite the government withdrawing consent,” Shivakumar said.
